This is a 12V rated coreless DC motor suitable for powering all but the smallest of 009/HOn30/HOe locos.These motors were specially made and because of a bulk purchase are available at a very low price, around half of what you can expect to pay for other small DC motors.The shaft is 1mm diameter but this may easily be adapted to 1.5mm with one of my 1.5mm OD 1mm ID shaft adapters - these can be purchased from myself. The lead wires are multi-strand, 30mm long.
